He had the look that they were looking for. The next year when the assignments were given out for December, I go 6 Varsity games, he got 8. His 2nd year, my 6th or 7th. I passed the part II with 96% he failed and had to give up his varsity games ( our policy is you have to have over 75% to do varsity games.)

That ticked my, but it's happened twice since then. It all politics. BTW, I am 6'2" and 240 and 53, so I know I am not a spring chicken.
I used to worry about that kind of stuff. All you can concentrate on is yourself, your progress, and your improvement. Worrying about others only leads to undue stress and frustration.

Usually after a while, creme rises to the top and the dirt settles to the bottom and there is plenty of room in between.
